I’ve been asking for someone to provide me their
cachedAccessorieswho is currently experiencing duplicate devices but so far I have not had any takers. I can’t really help without it. It appears that deleting this file will “fix” the issue but I’d like to find out why this happened and I can update the code to fix itself without requiring the file to be deleted or modified.@plasticrake I just ran into this issue coincidentally after installing my first outdoor dimmer (KP405) and the prerelease version fixed the issue I had where in v8.0.0 the device was not turning on at all. I don’t have any duplicate device issues that everyone else seems to have so I will say that your fix in this version has addressed a regression, at least in my case, with dimmers that you set out to fix! 🙌 I’ve been using this plugin for a long time and I appreciated the work you’ve put into this over the years 🦾
